Stop wrestling with universal rails that never quite fit. The B&W RVK2405 is a custom-fit bracket set engineered specifically for the Companion series fifth wheel hitch, giving you a rock-solid foundation in your truck bed without drilling, cutting, or guesswork. At 63.5 pounds of precision-formed steel, this kit is built to handle serious towing loads -- the kind that full-timers and seasonal haulers put on their rigs mile after mile.
The RVK2405 bracket set is the foundation that makes the B&W Companion fifth wheel hitch system work. Rather than relying on generic, one-size-fits-most rail kits, B&W designs each bracket set to mount flush and secure in a specific truck bed using the factory tie-down points and existing holes -- no drilling into your truck frame in most applications. The result is a cleaner install, a lower hitch profile, and a more confidence-inspiring connection between your tow vehicle and your fifth wheel trailer.
These rails are part of B&W's broader RVK (Rail and View Kit) system, which pairs with the Companion RVR series heads (RVR2500, RVR3500) and the Turnoverball gooseneck adapter. If you are running a Companion hitch and need to add it to a new truck, or you are replacing bent or corroded rails from a previous install, RVK2405 is the correct replacement bracket set for the applicable Ram fitment.
Engineered to use factory tie-down locations in compatible Ram 1500 truck beds -- no drilling required in most installations, preserving your truck bed integrity.
63.5 lb bracket set built from high-strength formed steel with a durable powder-coat finish to resist rust and corrosion through years of road exposure.
Designed to work with the B&W Companion RVR2500 and RVR3500 fifth wheel hitch heads, keeping the full system matched and rated correctly.
B&W's rail geometry keeps the hitch head sitting lower in the bed compared to many competitor systems, improving rear-window visibility and reducing trailer sway leverage.
Many RVers underestimate the importance of the mounting rail kit. The bracket set transfers every pound of trailer tongue weight and towing stress from the hitch head down through the rail system and into the truck frame. A mismatched, worn, or improperly installed bracket set can cause rail flex, king pin wear, and hitch head rock -- all of which translate into cab noise, trailer wander, and accelerated wear on your fifth wheel's landing legs and pin box.
The RVK2405 is stamped and formed to B&W's own tolerances, not outsourced rail stock. When you install this kit, the Companion hitch head drops into place on rails that are designed to accept it, with the correct slot spacing, the correct mounting ear geometry, and the correct height relationship to sit properly in the bed of the applicable truck.
The RVK2405 bracket set is designed for use in Ram 1500 pickup trucks -- confirm your specific model year and bed configuration against B&W's online fitment guide before ordering, as B&W produces multiple bracket set part numbers (RVK2400 series) for different truck makes and model years. Common compatible applications in the RVK2405 series include Ram 1500 trucks with the standard 6.5-foot bed.
The RVK2405 installs using the factory-installed, reinforced tie-down points in the truck bed floor. B&W includes all required hardware in the boxed kit. The typical install requires basic hand tools, a torque wrench, and approximately two to three hours for someone comfortable working under and in a truck bed. The rails position front-to-back and are secured by the included mounting hardware at each tie-down anchor point.
